Notes: There were high expression levels with significant difference in the NES gene in the first 24 hours, with low expression of each NF-L gene, then decreased in NES gene levels and increased in NF-L compared with control MSCs (P<0.05). Moreover, there was a decrease in the expression levels of MAP-2, with significant difference at different exposure times (P<0.05). Note that all of these three primers were normalized with the GAPDH gene (A) Amplification plot of all primers, (B) dissociation curve of all primers, (C) results of real time-PCR. Note that these data were significant at P>0.05 and represent the ∆CT of mean ± SEM.
